Chasing the kids and pets, COFFEE, avoiding anything that looks, sounds or smells like it might be scrapbooking, rocking out to music, pretending I'm a famous drummer while playing Rock Band on the Wii, singing (loudly but well, I swear), enjoying being a fighter wife (Go Navy!)and of course, reading and writing. 'Cause that's what I do:-)

About me: If you like your heroes sexy and supernatural (and, well, furry), then you've come to the right place! I'm a paranormal romance author whose debut novel, Call of the Highland Moon, was released in May of 2008 from Sourcebooks. Romatic Times gave it four and a half stars, calling it a "great, fast-paced tale...Castle's worldbuilding is superb and leaves readers wanting more." In fact, they liked it so much at RT that they've nominated it for a 2008 Reviewers' Choice Award! With Romantic Times being such a respected voice for women's fiction, this is a huge honor for me!
Dark Highland Fire was released in October, and continues the saga of the MacInnes werewolves as they confront an ancient and otherworldly enemy who poses a grave threat not only to the powerful relic their Pack protects, but to the very existence of their kind. Oh, and of course, Gideon and Gabriel manage to find their perfect mates along the way in the most unexpected of places. As Shakespeare once said, the course of true love never did run smooth...but that's the fun of reading the story:-) Hope you'll come along for the ride.
The final book in the MacInnes Werewolves' trilogy, Wild Highland Magic, will be released in May '09, and there'll be guest blogging and contests galore during the run-up to that, so stay tuned!
You can find me blogging regularly at Sourcebooks' paranormal author blog, Wickedly Romantic. I also blog a couple times a month at Casablanca Authors. That's where the other fabulous CasaBabes and I dish about writing, Romance, and hot guys with minimal clothing. We'd love to see you there! You can also visit me at my website. Yes, I know...I'm everywhere. Googling myself and actually finding things still freaks me out. Thanks for stopping by!
Who I'd like to meet: Stephen King. Then I can beg him to let me sing with the Rock Bottom Remainders! A girl's gotta dream. But other than that, I'd love to meet anyone who reads or writes paranormal romance. I'm all for "creature of the night" appreciation!
